Overview
"Enjoy Fitzroy Island with some added activities. Choose from snorkelling equipment hire or a glass bottom boat tour, join our Master Reef Guide on a Snorkel Safari, or relax on the beach with a picnic lunch.
"
This spectacular island is easily accessible from Cairns and features an array of beautiful natural features – such as an immense range of marine life and coral species – that make visiting a dream. Unlike smaller coral cays or sandy islands on the Great Barrier Reef, Fitzroy was once part of mainland Australia. The island is largely untouched and protected as Fitzroy Island National Park, with walking tracks through the rainforest, heathland and open forest to Nudey Beach and the Summit.
Optional activities are available such as:
Snorkel Equipment Hire
Glass Bottom Boat Tour
Snorkel Experience Tour
Snorkel Safari Tour
Freshly prepared picnic lunch
